Music has often been used as a tool to give a voice to the voiceless so why not use it to raise awareness for animals?! And that's exactly what WILD TIME guest's Paul Oakley and Spain-based duo Major Arcana are doing.

The World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA) would have the power to end the cruel drive hunts in the Japanese fishing village of Taiji. WAZA already condemned the drive hunt methods as early as 2004, yet, to date, there is still no binding initiative by WAZA to end the hunts.

WILD TIME talked to activist Daniel Oliver Jost about a protest that will be happening on March 28th 2014 in front of the WAZA headquarters in Switzerland. Ric O'Berry will also be attending.

In September 2013 WILD TIME spoke with Cee4life's Sybelle Foxcroft about the neglect of and cruelty to the animals who have to call Surabaya Zoo their home. Sybelle hasn't given up on the animals there and recently went back offering aid (again) to the zoo but has been rejected by the mayor of Surabaya. What exactly is going on at the zoo, why is the situation so tense and is there anything that can be done about it? Not too long ago a lioness was found hung in her cage, apparently by members or a member of staff. Sybelle believes that this happened to send a warning to all those who fight for a better life for the animals at the zoo. Don't miss this - listen and share widely

The European Communications Team has sent a very well written letter to the EU commission, pointing out that they are indeed obliged to intervene with regards to the highly controversial and certainly cruel and unnecessary stray dog killings in Romania. WILD TIME spoke to Robert Smith about the letter and the campaign.

Henry Burns, National Livestock Chairman for the Irish Farmers Association, announced in early 2014 that a strong live export trade is to be expected this year. Reason enough for WILD TIME RADIO to talk to NARA's Laura Broxson about ways to fight the live export industry.

2013 was an exciting year albeit a disturbing one because the topics we have covered in 2013 weren't easy at all and ranged from stray dog killings in Romania, trophy hunting, racism within the animal rights movement, shark finning, films like Blackfish and we even explored the link between animal abuse and human abuse, talked about the illegal wildlife trade and animal testing and, of course, the badger cull.

58 conversations were uploaded online and people listened to our footage 5136 x , which is awesome and shows that even a small entity like WILD TIME can be a voice for animals.

Our most listened to interviews are:

01. Making the link between human abuse and animal abuse, part 1
02. Highlighting animal abuse in Egypt
03. Bulgaria - where animals are often seen as vermin

the last one was also the most commented on interview of the year 2013.

The three least listened to interviews were:

01. Help the dogs in Denmark - English version
02. Removing trash from Key Largo Coral Reefs
03. Wake up - this is your life

As we are entering into year six of WILD TIME's existence, we are doing so full steam ahead.

For the animals and the planet WILD TIME
